TAC OFFICERS President Tija Zitner Vice-President Chris Becker Treasurer Michelle Azar Secretary Christine Moss The Tolbert Area consists of five halls: Tolbert, South, Weaver, East, and North Co-op. It is one of the largest areas and is located near the Stephen C. O ' Connell Center, Florida Field, and the Reitz Union. Tolbert Area Council (TAC) is the area governing body which also organizes for the area residents. The 1982-83 year has been very successful for TAC, beginning with an eventful and check-in week at the start of the year. Activities planned throughout the week facilitated the transition period for new residences. Tolbert ' s main attraction is the annual Mudfest. Involving a week of competitive activities in the mud, the October, 1982 Mudfest was the 16th and most successful yet. Mudpolo, volleyball, dizzy bat, and tug of war were among the events that created an uproar of enthusiasm the week. Tolbert Area Council has attempted to make each year better than the last. Among the variety of activities organized were alcoholic and non-alcoholic parties which proved to be very successful. TAC has sponsored more floor parties this year and incorporated unique events into activities such as the Super Bowl hot dog sale and Chinese New Year ' s party. In addition to parties, TAC has attempted to increase rape awareness by sponsoring programs. Other programs dealt with time management and coping with stress. Active involvement in IRHA, and communication with staff and North Hall have been other achievements accomplished in Tolbert Area. Tolbert 175
